It was a double-header for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex last night. The couple first attended the star-studded Baby2Baby Gala in Beverly Hills, before heading to Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party.
At the Baby2Baby event, which raises funds to support children living in poverty, Meghan kept things sleek and classic in a black skirt and top. Harry matched the formal tone in a traditional black suit and tie. The couple mingled with familiar faces, including Serena Williams, Paris Hilton, Kerry Washington, Jessica Alba, Meghan Trainor and Demi Lovato — all there to support the cause.
Princess Lilibet’s godfather Tyler Perry was in attendance.

Another look.
Later in the evening, the Sussexes joined the A-list crowd at Kris Jenner’s Bond-themed birthday bash hosted by Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez. Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, Mariah Carey, Martha Stewart, and the entire Kardashian-Jenner family were among those in attendance.
Meghan stayed in her all-black look — elegant, understated, and right at home among California’s elite. Harry wore his tux, adding a red poppy pin in honor of Remembrance Day.
Now that’s how you do a Saturday night in Beverly Hills.

What Meghan wore for the night’s festivities.

UPDATE 11/11: Her skirt is from Brandon Maxwell — Wrap-effect Gathered Jersey Maxi Skirt, $1795 (no longer available).
Early reports suggested Meghan was wearing custom Balenciaga, but the look didn’t quite match anything from the brand’s collections. I’d actually forgotten about her Wolford bodysuit — it’s been quite some time since we’ve seen her in it!
Meghan also owns the Wolford ‘Portland’ Turtleneck Pullover in black (no longer available) which she wore while the couple were visiting Scotland, February 2018.
Her shoes are from Aquazzura — Black Tie Sandal 105 in Espresso velvet ($1,105). More sizes available from Farfetch here ($1,245) and Selfridges ($921) here. There are a few sizes left from Aquazzura as well.
I found these shoes that are similar from Next – Lipsy Black Velvet Bow TBar Party Heeled Sandals, $94 and these BCBGeneration Ilana Pumps, $60.
The Duchess carried her Aquazzura Bow Tie Velvet Clutch Bag in Espresso, $2360 (no longer available).
Meghan’s earrings are from Aquazzura – Love Link Earrings, $625.
More from Aquazzura’s site about the earrings:
“Encrusted with crystals in a luxe smoky topaz hue, the Love Link Earrings feature a circular chain motif—the same design that embellishes the eponymous pump. These pendant-style earrings are crafted from polished light gold-toned metal and fall to a jaw-grazing length.”
I found some similar affordable options below.

Thanks for the latest updates.
Any info on Meghan’s clutch?
Hi Angelia, Batting 1000 today! I forgot to include it – it’s her Aquazzura bow bag that she had at the Godmothers event a few weeks ago. I’ve added it into the post. Thanks, Susan
Did I read the description of Meghan’s dress corectly? It says something about Meghan kept things sleek and classic in a strapless gown.
Meghan looks nice, but that is quite a bit of black fabric. I think this is a difficult dress to wear.
Hi Gail, sorry about that – I just edited the post. I have no idea why I wrote strapless gown! LOL It’s actually a skirt and top. I recently was looking at an old post and mixed up two outfits – I have to go back and fix it. thanks, Susan
Hi Susan, in the spaces where pictures should be, I’m seeing “Embed from Getty Images.” Just wanted to let you know. Thanks, L
Hi L, I checked and I can see the photos on my end in the post. Can you refresh your screen and let me know. Thanks, Susan
Hey Susan, I refreshed it a few times and even turned off my adblocker and I still don’t see the photos.
Hi L, If you are using your phone you may need to clear the history or adjust your settings. I checked via my phone, my husband’s phone and the desktop and I can see the photos. Also, you can try opening a private tab and see if that works. Hope this helps, Susan
Duchess Meghan looks so chic, sleek, and sophisticated! I just adore her earrings! ♥️
I love those earrings, too!
